WTF did the guy think he was going to be doing in the Army?

Maybe he thought he would be DEFENDING America rather than violating the Constitution (which also violates his oath) and attacking non-threatening countries that never attacked us.
I think you should all take note that he was in the service for 8 years and was staff seargant. He knew all about the military and wasn't some kid who was afraid to fight. He just wanted to fight on the side of the good guys and in this case he wasn't.

He should know that from the beginning.

I agree. I would have refused to go in the first place, but maybe he believed Bush until he got there and saw for himself we had no place in Iraq.

A soldier has the right to not act on commands s/he believes are immoral. This guy is 100% okay in his action.

Here Here! I couldn't agree more.

why he's been ''living like a criminal'' for few month? What for ?

I don't think they mean he's been committing armed robbery. I think they mean he's been living like a fugative because he was AWOL.

I may or may not agree with the war, and I may or may not advise people to join the military for different reasons, but this dickwad was a volunteer, and took an oath.
|
Yes, he did take an oath and by going to Iraq he would be violating that oath. Every soldier in Iraq is violating their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution. At least this guy is honoring his oath unlike those people.

The time to say what he said was while he was over there, with his unit, doing his job.

His "job" is DEFENDING American soil from attack, not invading non-threatening sovereign nations that have never harmed us and overthrowing the leadership of nations our president doesn't like. And I think his timing was pretty good. He needs to get the word out there that this war is wrong and not everyone taking part in it thinks its a good idea.
